United States
What to see in the United States, when to go and how to plan an itinerary spanning major cities and national parks.
1 city
The United States is best explored one region at a time: the distances between the East Coast and West Coast are continental and cannot be covered in a single trip. Major cities can be explored on foot and by public transport, while everything else requires a car or domestic flight.
High-altitude parks open in summer, while major cities are at their best in spring and autumn.
